Sunday junk junket

Bein' quite the flea store junkie (pardon the pun), I was pretty haps to hit upon Madrid's meet-up for all kinds of antique antics this Sunday. Right off the Rastro lies a little locale of nada but antique, vintage and retro retail spots; Galerías Piquer. A total Aladdin's cave of curiosities older than ya Grandma (but still in fine fine condition), this accomplished area of predominantly art deco antigüedades is a real ideal place to pick up some serious interior gems. Provided you've got the suitcase space, claro. Ah, and to boot, the Galerías are set in super cute surroundings, amplified by the still *touchwoodtouchwood* gorge late-November weather.

Always one step behind the shutter.

Of course, no Madrilenian Sunday would be quite complete without a "relaxing cup of café con leche," as they say, so it would've been rude not to have swung by my lil coffee stop cherub, Toma Café.
